Li Fei's pupils trembled slightly, and she suddenly couldn't understand Zhao Rui. She didn't know what he meant?
"Why did you do that?"
Zhao Rui patted the horse's back and moved forward slowly.
"I just want to verify whether the rumors that someone in the palace is colluding with the Cangyun Bandits are true!"
Only then did Li Fei react and hurriedly followed Zhao Rui.
Although the Qianyu Guards were secretly selected to protect Murong Bing, they were also responsible for collecting intelligence in the imperial city.
The reason why the rebellious ministers were accurately dealt with in such a short period of time that night was largely due to their intelligence.
Otherwise, Zhao Rui would not dare to issue orders so decisively.
As for the information about Cangyun Mountain, Qianyuwei has also been involved in it.
It is said that the big boss here is related to Xiao Xiangguo, and Xiao Xiangguo also has a share of the credit for not eradicating him for so many years.
Over the years, Xiao Xiangguo has colluded with the bandits here and has eliminated countless ministers who opposed him.
Therefore, the Queen naturally has some connection with the bandits here.
When he came out of the palace before, Zhao Rui deliberately passed by the queen's palace, and said a few words to the maid next to the queen, and let out the information about going to Cangyun Mountain.
Then several pigeons flew out of the Queen's palace.
The bandits on Cangyun Mountain should have received the Queen's flying pigeon message and knew that Zhao Rui and his party were here.
Therefore, Zhao Rui and the others don't need to make any plans at all, they can just go in.
Although it is dangerous, if you can recruit these people and get the nearly one million taels of silver in their hands, the result will be worth the risk!
Not long after, a young man in his twenties rushed out of the forest.
This man was extremely fair-looking and had a dashing air about him.
Dozens of bandits followed the young man and surrounded Zhao Rui and his party.
"You are very talented! No one has ever dared to shout like this in Cangyun Mountain."
There was no trace of fear on Zhao Rui's face, but there was appreciation in his eyes.
"You are also very powerful. There are so many people hiding in the mountains and forests, and you can't even show any flaws. It should be said that such a big forest should hide more than these people."
The young man was stunned for a moment, but without saying anything more, he put his fingers in his mouth and whistled.
Hundreds of bandits emerged from the forest with a roar!
"Sure enough!" Zhao Rui praised and stared at the young man with a burning gaze.
"To be able to hide so many people in the woods, you have a deep knowledge of the art of war! Are you interested in becoming a general in our Dachang?"
The young man was obviously moved, and his eyes shone with a little anticipation.
However, although he was young, he was extremely mature and quickly suppressed the emotions on his face.
"You are already my flesh and blood, why do you want me to become a general?"
Zhao Rui didn't say anything, just smiled, got off the horse, and followed the young man up the mountain.
I don't know how long they climbed along the steps in the mountain before they arrived at the village.
It seems a bit chaotic here. Drinking, fighting, and playing around with money. The temperament of bandits is vividly displayed in these people.
But there are quite a few people among them who do not join in the same trend with these guys. They consciously divide into various formations and practice seriously under the leadership of their respective captains.
